NEW YORK, June Now that the

They grow away up In the air upon a
branch, with their roots twined around the
limbs OF trees, thus holding themselves in
position. In their native places they thrive
without care or attention; they know no such
thing as being fertilized or watered. Some
times they droop downward to the length Of
eight or ten feet. The whole family of orchids
are noted for their eccentricities. Some of
them refuse to grow ut all unless hung up by
the heels, heads downward. Then they flourish
with iinpish exuberance, their groteseue faces
%grinning defiance to everything.
They often resemble animals, reptiles. and
even man, the most conceited animal of crea-
ton; but the resemblance is by no means so
striking as enthusiastic writer's have painted
it. Fantastic they are in shape, to b. sure,
and this adds to the interest in them.

1t is not often that more
touching story finds its way into
prosaic Geographic news dispatches
than that of yesterday about two
children who walked 100 miles to
see their mother, lunatic, confin-
ed in the State Asylum. They
reached their destination footsore
and torn, and at midnight rap
ned at the door OF the
ASYLUM and in piteous tones begged
for leave to see their mother. We
can well imagine what wealth Of
love filed the hearts of those two
lads; how it nerved them to their
task of trudging such weary dis
lance; how it kept them up in the
face of fatigue and hunger and cold.
The incident tells the old, old story,
that in all nature there is nothing
sweeter, purer, stronger, and nearer
to the Divine itself than love be-
tween mother and child Record
